Re: All of this guys t206's are NOT fakes... my fault
I have no idea about this seller. But it seems like scammers always load up their auction descriptions with player stats and Bio crap??? I guess legit sellers do it also, but I rarely see it myself, if ever. But the scammers do it often. -
Re: 1975 cello Robin Yount on top
That's a bit concerning. It seems to be an admission that visual inspection of the pack itself is not enough to detect resealed packs. So they won't consider authenticating a factory legit pack with reverse collation but they will try to authenticate a resealed pack where the scammer stacked the top and bottom card in the… -
Re: Chinese slab. How long before they start faking top tier slabs?
<< <i> << <i>There are so many red flags in this auction, it's not even funny. >> >> Now, how many times do you see scammers addressing their audience by saying "Hi Friend" or something similar? How many legitimate sales pitches start off in that manner? Why is it that scammers use this? -
Re: HR Saint--hijacked account?
Scammers are always looking for unsecured payments. I'm not sure where he got the picture of the coin that was listed: The scammer sent me this: Hi, did you send an E-check? It still shows: "Payment was initiated on Apr 27, 2020 and is being processed through PayPal. " Reply -

Re: Why must PSA do this?
The differences in flips is just downright wrong. I mentioned this the other day----"PSA from this day forward needs to stop messing with the flips". The scammers are happy as hell and we are left looking at EBAY scans five times to see if the holders are genuine. It's paradise for the scammers. -
Re: I've noticed a STEEP decline in auction prices lately. Is this normal for this time of year?
<< <i>anybody wonder if all of the asian fakes are taking a toll >> They are a big part of the "scammer factor." Anything that shakes people's confidence in a market is a negative. The lack of action against the sellers of this type of trash just encourages the scammers to become more bold than ever. -
Would you send a $400 card w/o DC?
I got this card in the mail today. It was wrapped in a piece of paper with "THANKS" written on it, and inserted into a bubble mailer. No insurance, no delivery confirmation. I paid via paypal. I guess the seller didn't think he needed to protect himself from scammers. Fortunatly, I'm not a scammer, but if I was, he'd be… -
Re: PA Outdoorsman Resurfacing??
<<< A euphemism for experienced collectors warning unsuspecting buyers >>> Oh yea you're right about that. Surprising he would place that thought in a bidder's mind, perhaps he thinks he is building credibility in himself by doing so? Scammers sometimes can be clever, and for sure scammers always think that they are clever. -
